Bump or bloat?

Question

I'm 11 weeks today and noticed that my pooch has seemed to be a teeny baby bump? I don't want to get overexcited if it's bloat of course but it seems to be harder than my pooch was before and seems a little rounder and not as down if that makes sense. Thoughts?
I'm 5 ft 2.5 and 115 lbs if that helps 🌻

Answer

Get as excited as you want!!!! Don't let anyone tell you any different. You're carrying a precious life inside and any chance of seeing that on the outside is something to be excited about. You can still rub on that bump even if it's gas. 😉

Answer

It's probably bloat. If you want to know if it's your uterus try this (but starting 14-16 weeks if i'm correct). I'm almost 30 weeks but I remember this very clearly. You will know when you feel it. It's really like there's an orange in there. But remember: the bloat is still coming from your baby. So even the bloat is something to celebrate your pregnancy! ❤️ just be happy and enjoy.

Make sure your bladder is completely empty. Lie on your back, bend your knees, and place your feet flat on the bed. 
Relax and take a few slow deep breaths and then breathe normally and relaxed. 
Place the flat of your left palm on the middle of your belly just above your pubic bone with your fingers pointing right and elbow pointing left. Use the flat of your left palm to lift away any fat padding and bowel loops out of the way up towards your upper abdomen and away from your pubic bone. While supporting your belly with your left hand, place your right hand just above your pubic bone with your fingers pointing towards the bone. Press your right hand fingers gently into your belly and walk the tips down until they just touch bone. Gently rock your fingers in and out of your belly while pushing gently down towards your feet. If you are lucky, you might feel a semi-firm ball that is not as "squishy" as your bowels. That's the top of your uterus just behind your pubic bone.
